[troublingtribble]

the scream I scrumpt

[troublingtribble]

unless the title is something like “a court of Elain ends up with Azriel” genuinely wtf is the reason for not releasing it at this point?

is the general public aware the next book is coming out soon at all?

#know your fandom history

[quasi-normalcy]

I've reached the point where cynicism is a major turn-off for me. You're not smarter than idealists, and you're not helping.

[quasi-normalcy]

Funny that the stereotypical cynic is an idealist who aged out of it. In my experience, the reverse is true. I was an extreme cynic as a teenager and then I noticed how profoundly limiting it was, and also that "cynics are cool and smart" was a message that was being constantly reinforced by corporate media for some reason.

[quasi-normalcy]

#yes! cynicism reads as very juvenile to me#and yes prev often stemming from teen pain

Yeah, like I see black-pilled people on here and my default reaction isn't "oh, these must be world-weary old warriors who've lost their faith in humanity", it's "these people are in their 20s and need a hobby"

[quasi-normalcy]

I also think that the present era has proven that authoritarian leaders don't actually want a population of wide-eyed idealists, they want a population of jaded assholes who are convinced that everyone is lying, any resistance is either a scam or doomed to failure, and nothing can ever get better.

moms are like Btw want to hear about this local news story that will make you fear for your life before you go out

[pinkfuneral7]

Hey, can we stop calling people who want a title and the book cover for ACOTAR 6 “entitled?” This the bare minimum information that should be provided by a company who wants you to spend your hard earned cash for a book.

Stop letting huge corporations take our money for doing absolutely nothing to earn it. You are the consumer and you deserve more. And I’m not just talking about BB, but any company selling you goods and services. It’s become so normal for corporations to treat their customers like crap and this shouldn’t be normalized. It’s your money, don’t just give it away anyone.

[troublingtribble]

the “SJM and BB don’t owe you anything” take is so bizarre to me…like yeah they actually DO owe you, their paying customers, something…this is how a transaction works

This spell has a very low hit ratio, so we need a lot of us to do it.

ai is telling me they made abu dhabi up for garfield

[ceruleanheaven]

religion is so fucking funny the world is just too beautiful there must be a higher entity behind all this. lets oppress women

[goddisposez]

hold up why is the beatles’ music actually fire

[goddisposez]

how did they get the words to crawl up the screen like that

[troublingtribble]

hear me out maybe the CERN timeline thing is real and some people actually did read different versions of ACOTAR….the level of delusion has reached metaphysical conspiracy theory territory

[viralfrog]

[acourtofquietdreamers]

We’re officially less than 100 days until ACOTAR 6 releases and I wanted to share a commission to celebrate 🥳 I'm so excited to finally read more about Elain and Azriel's journey. It’s going to be a beautiful ride and I can't wait to see where SJM takes us 💙🩷

Azriel writing Elain notes when he has to leave for missions in the middle of the night.

Elain finding these notes tucked under her door or on the kitchen counter or in her garden shed.

Elain hoarding these notes in a box under her bed.

Elain rereading these notes when he’s been gone for so long that she needs something of him to keep hold of.

Elain rereading these notes so often that she finally notices the rhythm and cadence that flows across the pages.

Elain realizing that Azriel “I Don’t Need to Resort to It”, Spymaster of the Night Court, has been writing her poetry for months.
